I've not seen the fight. But from what I have read it sounds like he was battering Holloway standing up until he hurt his knee. Makes good sense to try and take it to the floor.

Fuck in hell though. Getting a take down at that level is no joke even if you are 100%. Can't imagine the pain of shooting full power on a good opponent with a dodgy knee.

How many did he hit? Were they decisive or did he have to spend a lot of time dragging him to the floor?

i hope it is not too bad that that he makes a strong recovery.

it's a real shame he hurt his knee because his stand up in the first round was unbelievable. had to text a mate to get to a tv to see it, think he threw every type of strike known to man short of the krane. the reverse heel kicks were sick, spinning back kicks, front kicks, superman punches, the lot.

looked fantastic, then good ability to change tactics when the need arose. He got them quite easily too, at the end of the second and start of the 3rd and dominated on the ground getting mount a few times and landing some nasty g'n'p.
